hi all,
i've been having lots of trouble previewing time consuming renders on fluids and particles..

renderings usually take 5-10 min each on a 720x486 shot.

i wanted to know if there was a faster method of previewing how the shot will look like before i take a good rendering shot.....

the cameras dont give a good preview, neither does a playblast. and if i lower the settings in the rendering editors, it doesn't really lower the amount of time it takes, ill usually save about a minute or half a minute the most...


anyone have any ideas on how to preview things faster?
